Im in a fork in the road..

[cyberB2008]

I need some major help Im in a fork in the road for the fall (If you know what I mean).
I have Two choices that I cant make my mind of, One go to CSM for 2 years while working a job for $7.00/hour plus paying for gas, books/tuition etc...
Or my second choice spend the summer preparing for joining the Navy. Which do I pick????

Oh I forgot If things go right the AFTER 4 years of service the Navy will Pay for my college (thank you GI bill)

Navy.

Pick which one that suits you best, not what we tell you to do.

Take it!

I know but I need to know which sounds better, or which would you pick.

I'm at a fork in the road

:fixed:

Navy.

GET A GUARANTEED SCHOOL.
Education and experience in your chosen field at the same time.

Typically, most people are AT a fork in the road, not IN a fork in the road. We have enough dumb sailors, go to college and get educated.

How to you "prepare" to join the Navy?

Anyway, of course you would join the military. Get paid while learning a trade, get money for college, excellent job prospects when you get out, incredible benefits, travel and see the world a bit. Why wouldn't you take advantage of this?

Navy will show you opportunities/interests CSM wont. You can also go to college anytime you want while the Navy pays and you wont have to suffer doing a $7.00 an hour job you hate.

ya know..the man's got a point

 

[aps45819]

Seeing and experiencing a LOT of the world was great.
Can't get that in college.

If you don't want to travel all over the world, don't join the military.

You don't have an input as to how things are done
You don't call in and say you're running late
You don't say I'll get to that in a few minutes, when told to do something
You don't decide what you'll wear or how you cut your hair.
Nobody working with you will be named "Dude"

They tell you how to walk and when to eat.
They even tell you exactly how you'll fold your underwear.
If you don't like it, a great big fellow will get right up in your face and explain it to you.

It's not for everybody.

Work out!: Running, sit-ups, Curl-ups, swimming

Work out!: Running, sit-ups, Curl-ups, swimming

Only worry about that if you want to get into the SEALS or a diving unit.

Boot camp swimming is jump in a pool and don't drown for 5 minutes

Good idea - get a jump start on basic.

Go talk to a recruiter and see what they can offer you. You don't sound like an idiot, so I'll bet your prospects would be pretty good.

There are always more than 2 options. Why not go get a 4 year degree from a university?

Someone I know was supposed to be getting into the Navy (would have been a bathroom-cleaner though ) and he couldn't even do a single push up :shrug: Boy was that a funny thing to watch.
